Added change root password for KVM to client area. Bootstrap/ajax client templates only
Added a fix for Xen PV virtual server disk usage showing 100% if the virtual server is on a CentOS 6 host. XENFIXCENTOS6DF=“1” can be added to /usr/local/solusvm/data/advanced.conf on the affected host node. We are not sure if this is a bug in the host’s df command as of yet
Added dual pass option to connection monitoring. If you have issues with false positive connection error alerts there is now an optional flag you can add to /usr/local/solusvm/data/config.ini on the master. Set ‘extra_pass_on_fail = true’ to run a second check if the first fails before sending an email
Several logical volume settings have been added for KVM slave nodes. Settings are available in /usr/local/solusvm/data/config.ini This will enable you to pass the following flags when a virtual servers logical volume is created:

;; lvcreate (-i) stripes (default not set). Numeric value only

;lvcreate_stripes = 1

;; lvcreate (-I) stripesize (default not set). Numeric value only (kilobytes)

;lvcreate_stripe_size = 512

;; lvcreate (-c) chunksize (default not set). Numeric value only (kilobytes)

;lvcreate_chunk_size = 512

;; lvcreate (-aey) Use the -aey flag to activate logical volume exclusively on the host node (true|false)

;lvcreate_aey = false

Added option to remove and set exclusive logical volume flags when migrating a KVM virtual server from the GUI using the don’t move data option. Settings are available in /usr/local/solusvm/data/config.ini on each slave:

;; If migrating virtual servers on shared storage using the don’t move data option this can ;; be run to give the logical volume the -aey flag on the destination

;lvchange_migrate_destination_exclusive = false

;; If migrating virtual servers on shared storage using the don’t move data option this can ;; be run to give the logical volume the -aln flag on the source

;lvchange_migrate_source_exclusive = false
